Chapter 1: The Dying

Next Chapter

When the matter is in trouble, it is difficult to die.

A slight rustling sound can be heard as the sharp blade cuts against the scalp.

The knife bearer sighed softly: "Alas, the weather is hot, and there are people with shaved heads, but you are the first one as young as you......"

Young? Li Yan looked at himself in the mirror, his early twenties were indeed young, but he was also a dying person!

"Bald head has to be shaved often, why don't you get a membership card with me, it's a little more cost-effective......" The barber shaved his scalp and sold.

"I don't need to." Li Yan said softly.

"How can it not be used? Usually a haircut is fifteen at a time, if you apply for a card, it will cost 100 yuan ten times, and you will also send nursing care...... Oh, you don't need to be bald, but I can give you a bottle of moisturizing ......."

Li Yan interrupted him a little bored and said, "Do you know why I shaved my head?" Cerebroma! Tomorrow craniotomy, whether you can get off the operating table alive or not, what do you recommend to me? ”

"Uh......" The barber suddenly stopped talking, what can he recommend to a dying person? Coffin or graveyard? The point is that he doesn't run this here......

Li Yan closed his eyes slightly, and the doctor's words seemed to be still in his ears, as if he had been sentenced to death:

"Brain tumor ......"

"The success rate of the surgery is not more than 30 ......"

"In the case of conservative treatment, it is ...... up to three months"

For more than a month, Li Yan has been running around looking for hospitals and doctors, and has done countless examinations, but the result is the same......

So what else can be done?

If you fight hard, if you have surgery, you may die directly, or if the operation is successful, you still have hope of living, it's better than waiting for death in agony, right?

"Okay, do you want to shave your beard too?" The barber asked timidly in a whisper.

"Hmm." Li Yan replied, without opening his eyes.

The surgery has been scheduled, and it will start tomorrow morning at half past nine, and the purpose of shaving the head is to prepare for the surgical craniotomy.

This means that tonight may be my last night.

By the way, the beard was shaved clean, and if it was really dead, it would be considered neat, right?

Li Yan felt the blade across his cheeks, felt the slight tremor of the roots of his beard being scraped, and felt the ......

Suddenly, a huge impact sound came, followed by Li Yan felt the blade cut through the skin, and the hot stinging pain made him open his eyes, but he saw that behind him half-lying in the mirror opposite, the barber standing was stiff, his open mouth was constantly foaming blood, and there was an aluminum alloy bar diagonally inserted in his throat, and blood flowed ......

Hurriedly sat up from the half-reclining barber chair and turned around, only to see that the door of the barbershop turned out to be the butt of a car, the glass door was completely shattered, and the aluminum alloy on the barber's throat was obviously a piece of the door frame......

What's going on? Could it be that the car reversed out of control and rushed into the store? But an aluminum alloy door frame stabbed the barber to death, which is too much of a coincidence, right?

Don't care so much, it's important to save people!

Li Yan turned around, but saw that the barber who had fallen to the ground on his back had straight eyes, twitching all over, and he couldn't see that he was alive......

"Oops, what's going on? Are you alright? Are you alright? Belch! ”

There was a sound of talking at the door, but it was the driver who got out of the car, and sure enough, it was a female driver, and she was still a forty or fifty-year-old aunt with a seriously deformed figure.

She screamed and stumbled around the door, but she was stunned when she saw the situation, and then trembled like chaff: "It's none of my business, yes, it's my car that has a problem, I obviously stepped on the brakes, but it rushed up on its own......"

As soon as Li Yan heard this, he immediately became angry, there is no need to ask about this situation, it is definitely the accelerator as the brake. Even if the operation is improper, it is an accident, but you shirk the responsibility without saying a word, without a minimum of remorse, are you still a person!

However, Li Yan is not a traffic policeman, so he didn't have time to reason with her, so he only shouted loudly: "Don't be stupid, call quickly!" ”

After yelling, Li Yan squatted down, wanting to give first aid to the barber, but he didn't know how to do it.

The first aid common sense of ordinary people is nothing more than hemostasis bandaging, which is cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the like, and an aluminum alloy insert on the throat is not in this range. The injury may have broken the carotid artery or amputated the trachea, but in either case, it will not last a few minutes.

Sure enough, the barber's convulsions became smaller and smaller, and his eyes were glazed......

Li Yan sighed, who would have thought that he, the dying man, was not dead, but he, who was healthy and alive just now, died first......

"No, I didn't hit someone, I hit a glass door, and the door frame flew out and stabbed someone...... Eh, come here anyway, I bought your insurance, you have to take ......care of it," the aunt yelled angrily into the phone, and hung up angrily.

Li Yan gritted his teeth again and shouted: "I asked you to call 120, what kind of insurance do you apply!" ”

"Ah, you're hurt too? I'm going to beat it, I'm going to beat ......" The aunt said and rubbed against the door that was squeezed by her car butt to only a slit, and jumped outside the gate, obviously afraid that Li Yan would be too angry in case she would beat her.

The hospital is not far away, just a street away is the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University, where Li Yan was hospitalized and waiting for surgery, this is to find such a small barber shop nearby to shave his head.

But even if the hospital immediately sent a car over, it is estimated that there will be no way to revive the person...... Glancing at the lifeless barber again, Li Yan took two steps back, took out his cigarette case with trembling hands, lit one and took two puffs, but he felt his heart beating wildly and his cheeks tingling.

The heartbeat is because of fear, but the pain in the cheek is a razor-cut wound.

I looked closer to the mirror, but I saw that the wound was not deep from the corner of the mouth to the root of the ear, but the blood was not less.

Li Yan turned around and wanted to find a tissue or something to stop the bleeding, his eyes swept away, but he suddenly felt something strange in the corner of his eye.

Hurriedly turned his head again to take a closer look, and sure enough, there was a figure in the mirror.

The figure stood behind him, next to the barber lying on the ground.

It was an old man, not tall, with a shiny head, round eyes, nostrils facing the sky, a pair of provocative ears, and a mouth covering the sky.

The old man looked down at the barber and muttered, "Alas, it's a pity, why did you die so early?" It's so bad that I haven't gotten hot yet, so I'll have to find another one......"

The old man said, turning his head to look at Li Yan.

Li Yan suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and extreme fear climbed up his head along the back of his back.

"Well, sick? Forget it, let's make do with it first......" The old man said, and walked towards Li Yan.

There were no two steps away, and the old man was about to go behind him.

Frightened to the extreme, Li Yan suddenly turned around and shouted, "Don't come here!" ”

Hey? What's the old man behind it?

"Huh? Can you see me? But the old man's voice rang out.

Li Yan glanced sideways in the mirror, and the old man was obviously standing in front of him!

"You, what are you...... Stuff? Li Yan's voice trembled a little.

"Don't talk nonsense, what can I be in this blue sky?" The old man said.

Li Yan turned his head to look outside the barbershop, it was already completely dark.

"Ahem, what then, young people don't be superstitious, from a scientific point of view, I am indeed human." The old man said.

Ke you are big, where is there anyone who is transparent and can only be seen through a mirror?

"Oh, someone is coming, I'll explain it to you later......" the old man said, and suddenly rushed towards Li Yan.

Li Yan saw that the little old man jumped three feet high and climbed directly on his back, but he didn't have time to react if he wanted to dodge, he felt a thrill all over his body, and a layer of goosebumps appeared from his back, but the old man was gone......
